President Trump mocked 2020 Democrat Michael Bloomberg’s highly paid campaign staff over the billionaire’s performance so far in the party’s presidential primary.
Bloomberg’s campaign is supported by a massive, well-paid staff who Trump suggested is failing their candidate, despite the fact that the former New York City mayor did not formally participate in the four early elections in the primary.
“Mini Mike Bloomberg’s consultants and so-called ‘advisors’ (how did that advice work out? Don’t ask!), are on the “gravy train” and all making a fortune for themselves pushing Mini hard, when they knew he never had what it takes,” the president tweeted Sunday morning. “Don’t pay them anymore Mike, they led you down a very dark and lonely path! Your reputation will never be the same!”
…..a very dark and lonely path! Your reputation will never be the same!

Bloomberg will be on the ballot in every Super Tuesday state as more than a dozen contests take place throughout the United States, including the massive delegate pool in California. The billionaire decided that he would not participate in the early states, but he did join the last two debates.
The RealClearPolitics polling averages show Bloomberg in third behind Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden. As Trump noted, Bloomberg’s staff, even at the lowest levels, is paid more than double that of Sanders’s campaign.
